Yeah I know that Golf isn`t a Polo:) but the heart is G40:)
Lovely looking golf the colour is amazing!
I find it ironic how people always favour the golf but yet the polos PY engine is a top easy choice to make good power!
Sweet ride though mate!!!
love it!! the g40 badge on the front grill is an awesome touch :)
Seriously cool, I would love a mk1, how's the g40 suit a mk1 as a lot of people use bigger engines for conversions,
Thanks mates for good words;)
For me it rides nice. Mk1 is light, i think it's even lighter than polo. There is no new ECU management after new camshaft and FMIC so it should be faster when I do that.
I am thinking about ITB. I saw one from Dbilas but it's to expensive for me right now (over 1100 pounds). Maybe someone got a recipe for cheap ITB?:)
Check out the projects section
Lance on here made ITB using a motorbike inlet as a plenum chamber and the throttle bodies for the polo. Made his own fuel rail
Here's new look for my G:)

any pics of the actual engine conversion /swap, looking to do a similar swap myself! any custom mounts needed or anything?
any advice? thanks
Sorry but i don`t have any pics, im here in UK but the car is in Poland so i even cant do them now.
If you got all from Polo and your golf had small block, everything should be plug and play. I dont know how it is with exchaust because on the begining i done the custom one.
You can have some problems with gears, but if you got some skills it will be easy.
